Aggression w/o a cause is a NO NO ! Watch out it is fixing to happen ! No accident !

You did a great job, Donald! There are reports that around 100 IS fighters escaped detention because of Turkish aggression in northern Syria. ' Well done!' Europe says thank you!

America has betrayed you. From now on, the United States will also be betrayed by its allies. The pain in the betrayal place can not blame anyone.

WHY CNN? Why isn't this the TOP HEADLINE on your website and newcasts People are being executed! This is potential genocide! WTF!

It is not true. Turkish army only attacks to Terorist group of Pyd ypg !!!

Trump doesn't know what he is doing, he is like a crazy bull a big arena

Breaking live news if kurds Don't get help from US They will ask Russia for help. very bad

America left his best allies to be killed by Turkey. This is act of genocide.. .. noflyzone4rojava

Us-YPG/PKK mortar attacked killed 8 and wounded 35 in Turkey’s border town Nusaybin

Has anyone thought that maybe Trump made a deal with Puten that the US would pull out of Syria and allow Turkey to come in so the Kurds would look for help elsewhere and Russia then would offer their help and open the door for them to take it over. Smells like a Trump deal to me.

I’m not sure how this “official” was briefed. But the Turks have a grid map with a big AMERICANS ARE HERE with an X on it. That’s not an accident.

U.s. is guilty of cowardice we follow a coward President. we are a disgrace.May God watch over the Kurds

Who throw the bone or pouring fuel in Fire pit to rise Civil Wars , wake up Arab world don't be a middle puppet to give a chance of giggling

Fake news form PKK/YPG/SDG terrorist organization...

USA people are human. Kurdish People no matter if deaths from Turkish....🧐🤐🤯

Stop playing this cat & mouse game. If US forces are leaving, then get the fuck out!

This is trumps war, betrayal to the Kurds. Think Iran is next, this president only deals with communist countries, and turn your back on our allies.

like many auther media outlets have turned a blind eye on what's going on in Haiti. The most corrupt president in the Americas has massacred his own people, including journalists. It's like there's an intl concensus to keep silent about it.

The result of play stations zero knowledge of international politics

People attacking Turkey 🇹🇷 for defending her immediate borders from terrorists yet no one questions what the hell the US troops vebeen doing in Afghanistan,Iraq,Syria,thousands of miles away,all these years.🙄🙄🙄We dont have a problem with Kurds,we have a problem with terrorists

The U.S. military calls it collateral damage.

But he gave the murdering Saudis 2000 troops today

Doesn't matter. They shouldn't have been allowed to strike in the first place. Thank our mentally unstable president and I say president loosely, for this. Murderer

So, if the Syrian Kurds now turn to the Russians for help and Russia bombs the Turkish Army, what then? As Turkey is a NATO country would that mean that NATO comes to the aid of Turkey and takes on Russia? The idiot Trump has truly unleashed a potential hell. Does he not think?

StandWithTheKurds TurkeyIsNotOurFriend

So basically a Turkish artillery round didn't hit anyone and you're reporting about it. My dog almost shit on the carpet today but I noticed it and got him outside want to write an article about it?

Hahahaaaa. You are really foolish. You are trying all types of lie. Omg what kind of creatures are u?

Please advise trump someone. As far as he knows there are no troops in syria. Absolutely none

UmaSharandon The insider view of the Turkey-Syrian border from someone who was there: Here’s why Trump’s troop withdrawal …

What a lie... keep doing this like you did before.. terroristUSA

Didn't the US withdraw all its troops from NE Syria?

FAKENEWS!

abdullahawez candundaradasi

CNN is beyond pathetic lol... live on Fox News Trump cuts a deal with China and no ratings cnn doesn’t even cover it omg

Although we betrayed by America but we still protect our land and fight those jihadi Turkish terrorists till we die

Fake news. There is coordination between US and TR despite poor relations to ensure such accidents are avoided. Anyway just take your troops back 10000miles so they can be with their fsmilies instead of propping up pkk/sdf terrorists on Turkey's border. Simple.
